Cool Valley Preserve Vine Day!
9 AM

Save the trees! Chester County Open Land Conservancy volunteers continue to wage their battle against the invasive vines that are strangling the trees in the Nature Preserves . . . and could use some help tomorrow.

This is a great opportunity to get some fresh air, work with some of your neighbors and make a lasting impact on the Nature Preserves. Saturday, March 5, starting at 9AM is the Cool Valley Preserve ‘Vine Day’. Although the volunteers generally work 3-4 hours, any help that you can offer would be greatly appreciated!

Directions to Cool Valley Preserve: Off Swedesford Road turn into Shadow Oak Drive. Follow to the end (circle). Turn left at circle one block to Cool Valley Road and turn right to Preserve entrance.

Volunteers are asked to meet in the Cool Valley Preserve entrance at 9 AM. Any questions, contact Ray Clarke, 610-578-0358. All that’s needed are protective clothing, gloves and, if you have them, tools such as loppers, pruners and hand saws to supplement Open Land Conservancy’s supply.

Thank you, Pattye. I was just out in the preserve with Harold Sheinbach, the volunteer Preserve Manager. A beautiful day and a great walk. With terrific volunteer help we’re making great progress, but there’s plenty of work left! There’s a really pretty trail down the hillside to Valley Creek that shows what can be done. I hope that some of your readers can spare a couple of hours tomorrow in what should be good weather.
